- Disputes between the Church and the Crown had a long history in England as in other areas of Europe, and what is known as the English Reformation initially had more of a political than a theological nature.
- In 1527, Henry VIII sought an annulment of his 18-year marriage to Catherine of Aragon but Pope Clement VII refused.
Why it is Rare

ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 78 and blocks with 87: each hit it takes is cut by 35 %.
